[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 2221427, member: 25419"] First thing- son, is I don't run from &$%%. And [I]I[/I] didn't say they were ruining the country, you somehow got that out of what I posted. My point is, you can't blame the individual immigrant, legal, or no, for trying to come to the Greatest Country on Earth. If you were not fortunate enough to be born here, you'd probably be eyeballing our border as well. I know I would. If immigrants do not assimlilate, learn English, accept and cherish the values that have been established here, then our country will no doubt soon resemble the areas that many of these folks fled. As for your comments about the fast food places with bulletproof glass - look what neighborhoods they are in. Mostly areas of longtime US residents that are rife with crime, gangs, etc...mentality is "we got it so bad here..." So who [I]works[/I] at these places? Who opens the convenience store that is inevitably targeted for robbery? Who works for cash, mowing, or roofing or hanging sheetrock all day, only to be targeted by U.S. thugs, who choose their victims by race, because they know they're more likely not to report the crime?
